“This book has collected valuable information regarding a number of financial products for the accumulation and decumulation stages of one's life and explained the products in an engaging and clear manner, without overlaying too much technical information.  I feel that the coverage of the book is excellent for most people who are not specialists in the investment world, and even has much information for those of us who specialize in investments and insurance.  Although I have been teaching in these areas for over 25 years and have worked on Wall Street, I learned a lot and plan to use this book as a helpful guide to financial planning for my own retirement.”
